Hello,

small problem..

when I send mail to xxx@server.FQDN.com it works..

when I send mail to xxx@FQDN.com it doesnt..

I have  (apart from spending hours of work)

1) set up masquerading properly within sendmail

tested by simple pinging... ie..

ping fqdn.com  (it works when I manually send mail within my network)

I get the following.. ping: cannot resolve FQDN.com: Unknown host

yet there are no problems with www.FQDN.com, ftp.FQDN.com, etc...

Thus, all mail is refused..

Any help with this (dns?) problem would be appreciated

Thanks

Paul
